Cused City: NEW mini, OLD style | also SPORKTOBER competition announcement!!!

Let Hatty get you inspired for SPORKTOBER 2023! We are running a fun retro painting competition on Instagram and for Patreon supporters over on the Midwinter Minis Discord server. Here are the rules! Challenge --- Paint any “Ork” or “Undead” style miniature in a retro 90s colour scheme. Prizes --- Patreon Ork winner: Space Ork RTB13 sprue from 1990 Patreon Undead winner: Skeleton Army PBS5 box from 1989 Instagram Ork winner: Space Ork Raider “Troopar” from 1987 Instagram Undead winner: Vampire Counts “Wraith 7” from 1992 What’s allowed --- ANY “Ork” or “Undead” style miniature, GW or not. Retro is great, modern models are great, 3d printed is great, have fun! By “Ork”, we mean any typical “green skin” model, goblins, grots, nobs, and big stompy walkers and vehicles are fine too! By “Undead” we mean literally anything spooky. Skeletons, witches, vampires, zombies, ghosts. Basically, if there could be a really bad halloween b-movie about it, it qualifies. Anyone can enter, regardless of age or location. Instagram entry --- Please use the tag #sporktober23 when posting work in progress pics, or final paint jobs. This is how we will find posts to enter them into the competition, and be judged. You can enter both the Ork and Undead side of the competition if you like, but only 1 entry in each category per person, please. Patreon entry --- Active Patreon supporters will be able to post work in progress and final paint job photos in the #sporktober23 chat room in the Midwinter Minis Discord server. You can enter both the Ork and Undead side of the competition if you like, but only 1 entry in each category per person, please. Closing date --- Judging will take place on October 25th, so please have your entries ready and posted before midnight on October 24th (UK time) Winners notified --- Winners will be announced on 31st October, and also contacted privately to arrange prizes.
